Abstract
A device may include a core having a center, a first end opposite a second end. The device may include a first wheel extending from a location proximal the first end of the core and having a first wheel radius. The device may include a second wheel extending from a location proximal the second end of the core and having a second wheel radius substantially similar to the first wheel radius, a delivery device coupled with the core; and wherein: the delivery device comprises a tip configured to deliver a substance, the tip having a delivery end, and a distance from the center to the delivery end is less than the first wheel radius and the second wheel radius.

An animal enrichment device comprising:
- a body having an interior surface and a body length;
- a body cavity defined by the interior surface of the body;
- a core extending into the body cavity and having a core length;
- a first opening defined by a top portion of the body and exposing the body cavity and the core;
- a second opening defined by the core;
- a third opening defined by the body and by the core;
- and
- a core cavity defined by the core and extending between the second opening and the third opening;
- wherein:
- the core length is less than the body length and the second opening is within the body cavity;
- the first opening having a first opening length defined between a first edge at least partially defining the first opening and a second edge at least partially defining the first opening opposite the first edge of the first opening;
- the second opening having a second opening length defined between a first edge at least partially defining the second opening and a second edge at least partially defining the second opening opposite the first edge of the second opening;
- the first opening length is greater than the second opening length;
- the third opening having a third opening length defined between a first edge at least partially defining the third opening and a second edge at least partially defining the third opening opposite the first edge of the third opening, wherein the third opening length is greater than or equal to the second opening length and less than or equal to the first opening length.
